After Mass on Friday, each of our classes had the privilege of spending some time in Adoration with our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. In an era of mandatory distancing, let us not forget that Jesus Christ comes near to us in His sacraments and desires to be close to His people!
On Friday, we invited 8th Grade parents to join us for the 8th Grade Blessing at the end of Mass. Father Chris spoke about the challenge of leadership, especially during a pandemic – that student leaders should step up and accept the challenge for the good of all, to be role models for our younger students. We appreciate our student leaders who are off to a great start!
We appreciate your cooperation with the many health protocols that have been put into place to mitigate risk of the spread of COVID-19. Parents have done a great job of keeping kids home that aren’t feeling well and keeping us informed about symptoms, doctor visits, test results, etc. Remember – if your child isn’t feeling well or has any of the symptoms: Fever of 100.4 or higher; Cough; Sore Throat; Shortness of Breath; Fatigue; Diarrhea or Vomiting; New Loss of Taste or Smell; Body/Muscle Aches; Abdominal Pain – keep them home and let us know by emailing Nurse Walker – nurse@sjsknox.org or calling the office 865-689-3424.
